Here is a picture of beautiful Tallahassee. Since she is a black pig, it&acute;s very hard to take pics and not have them show up as dark blobs! So, I get a torchiere lamp (on of those that shine out the top) and bend it down to totally flood the pig in light. Then snap!

Iknow what you mean about dark pigs. I have a terrible time taking pics of Nina. I&acute;ve dragged her out into bright sunlight and it is still tough. And when I do get a nice clear pic, the dandruff looks awful. At least now she doesn&acute;t seem to have any but it does stand out when a dark pig does.

Oh yeah, I know what you mean. Luckily, I have had none of the blacks with that trouble. I&acute;m not sure why this pic is kind of blurry. On my camera and on the photo program on my computer, it is very clear. On the board, her eyes look kind of blurry.

That&acute;s fantastic, KM. I must see if I can dig up a torch to try it.

On a slightly connected note, my camera&acute;s doing strange things I don&acute;t understand. I take pictures which are beautifully clear, with the colour apparently perfect (on the preview pane), but then when I transfer them to the computer they&acute;re a lot darker. I&acute;ve had to use Adobe to lighten them, but then the quality is affected. Anyone know what I (or the computer) could be doing wrong?

(Tallahassee&acute;s gorgeous, BTW.)

Piggylass, she is beautiful! And Evangeline, I typed it like it was written on the darn box, so you can just bite me! Plus, I haven&acute;t got my computer set to type in French!
As for the satins, maybe you could try the floodlight like me? Dani is a satin, and she IS hard to photograph...I&acute;ll work on it some.

The black pigs are gorgeous. My b/f was just saying that he wants a black pig but with red eyes! Is that possible? He told me he was bored with all of our pigs and wants to get new ones! I had to explain to him they are not toys to be discarded for new ones!

Nope. Black pigs with red eyes is not genetically possible. But you can get a silver solid with dark eyes with a ruby cast. That is about as close as you are gonna get. Or a dark chocolate with ruby eyes. Or a lilac with pink eyes....
